Name me someone whose opinions _all_ mesh with yours. That's not a challenge or anything, I'm actually agreeing with you & given you a thumbs up. We just won't agree with everything anyone says - hell, I don't agree with my husband half as much as I agree with some TH-camrs LOL - but we can respect those who stand up for what they believe in and how they put it over.
"Hey it will happen any time now!" "I've only been waiting for 2000 years!" And then you remember the Bible said he'd be back "soon". Yeah I think he lied about that.
I think all this person saw was Thunderf00t getting more and more distant from them. Convinced they were on a high ledge and not moving, they concluded that Thunderf00t must be falling down. So their observations and conclusions were technically correct, just their assumptions weren't.
You need to mention this channel more often on your main channel! I totally forgot you started a second channel so I just now came across it and subscribed / started watching. Great stuff, as usual. Keep it up!!!!
Aurini claim to fame is the fact he knows all the keyboard shortcuts... that's like getting the all time high score DigDug. Wow, I better follow him if he's that good. lol 🤣
In a sense I get what he was trying to do. If you use a program so much that you know all of its ins and outs, that says something. Not very much, because you could just compulsively memorize manuals and never actually use the program, but that's kind of rare in itself. Of course, professionals don't necessarily learn all the tricks even after decades of experience either, because you don't necessarily need to use all the shortcuts in a program. So I get what he was _trying_ to do. But that doesn't mean we don't know what he actually _did,_ which was try to say how huge his two inch dick was compared to everyone else's dicks which of course were smaller because his two inch dick's huge. Utterly pathetic. This is the reason I try to be fair to stupid fuckwits as much as I can. It makes the eventual smackdown that much better.
Damnit, falling down again? Someone get him a walker, since two legs isn't enough. Obviously Elon slipped him a micky to make him uncoordinated so he stops outwalking hyperloop pods.
Hi @Thunderf00t. Have you watched the HBO's Chernobyl? Would be interesting to hear your take on it, maybe from the perspective of scientific accuracy.
Philip 'the Phoenix' Mason: After every downfall he rises up from the ashes. As far as Aurini's concerned: I had almost completely forgotten him. He seems to bear a grudge, poor fellow.
@thunderf00t always remember that the lion doesnt care what the sheeps are thinking about him keep up the good work , we still have things to learn from you
I don’t always agree with you but I respect the fact that you think through your opinions and can back them up. I also greatly respect and enjoy your science videos. Your content shows you have an huge breath of scientific knowledge. I would guess multiple PhD’s but what would I know.
Goes to show that variance is the key. You produce good science content, general interest content, funny content, debunking content, it all adds up. Your audience aren't stuck in an echo chamber, they might disagree on nearly everything, but still enjoy your videos.
10:43 - I think the reason why that video got so much more interest in views was because of the title, not clickbait as it is facts, but it is amazing to read *$70 million per KG* - and people ALL wanted to know why!?
@Cosmic Rift ah ok :) well musk is a smell so that handles the part withing parenthesis. the thing between quotes implies I was (still am though) drinking .. and the last was a question .. pointed to by the question mark. which was my actual comment. When did Elon ever publish a scientific paper and did it ever stop him *wink* I feel so whooshed by typing this though... but can't be sure anymore.
If it was possible to use 100% of the energy from the sun, they have about 1360 W/m² to play with and if it need to fly under the clouds it must have some energy storage. It's hards to think about anything else than a glider.
Yeah, it needs something more efficient than a solar cell. Perhaps there s something. I've heard of night cells but they produce 100 times less than a solar, so far.
@@ytbabbler true i dont think it will be possible since the plane will be to heavy and if they use a electrical turbine still thinks they be better of with normal jet engine, they maybe have an idea like a cold air trusthers, but it will be to weak also the time it would take to charge the battery will not be cost efficient. any ways it there lose of resources.
Your popularity with the general masses might go down hill, but your contributions to our science and education will live on, impacting the world for the better.
When you were looking at the impossibly high H-index: third one at 153 Pierre Chambon was my dad's boss for 30 years. The guy refuses to retire and is admired by most of his colleagues. On the other hand i've worked for some who like having their name on absolutely everything they can get their hands on even if they don't understand any of it
There's a wonderful Russian saying that goes like this: "Никогда такого не было и вот опять" - 'This has never happened and here it goes again'. I find it quite fitting for the situation.
I LOL'd HARD when you read the part where he called you a "sad and lonely man." Omfg, what an amazing attack on your person that was. That was just so fucking good. And he just doesn't know the first thing about you. That statement just reeks of desperation for just something to grab on to in order to somehow discredit you, but it just falls flat on its face.
I came up with an idea to build a hyperloop on the moon, you wouldn't need to create a vacuum and you wouldn't need to encase it you could have a raised rail which a space craft can pretty much dock to and deorbit it's self using magnets to generate electricity while slowing on the track and land on the moon without having to do a deorbit burn. You could even use is as a method to get back into orbit or use it as an electromagnetic rail gun to shoot you retrograde or prograde from the moon either to return to earth or to travel through the solar system
Thunderfoot, you're a fucking scientist, I've watched you disprove mountains of bullshit and expose idiots to no end. Glad you're here, never quit, never surrender.
Oh my lord, TF, how will you cope? All of your two dozen subscribers will never get over the shock ... LOL - sorry, I can't keep it up 😂😂😂 As ever you deal with it with aplomb.

If you find yourself needing a scam to debunk check out Flower Turbines. Tiny little VAWT with a tiny output that always seem to be in a redesign phase but still soliciting contributions.
Its now been over a year since this video came out... if you're falling then you've discovered the largest hole in history because you've yet to hit the bottom.
out of all of that what i got was the "h index " thing used to put a number to a guy or girl who writes papers which get published is in short useless.
Quantity of citations, as you point out, doesn't necessarily mean it's good science. I had the pleasure of listening to a talk by a Distinguished Professor in Hydrology (not my field, but was working in my department) and he has several of the most cited papers in his field from early in his career. Not because people thought he was a brilliant scientist, but because they wanted to tell him he was wrong and 'undermining the field' (I'm paraphrasing but very similar words were used). Although, thirty to forty years later, people now recognise that was right the whole time in his approach and the fundamental principals he pioneered are, as far as I know, standards in the field. So he was a brilliant scientist, but that's not why he got so many citations at first.
oh, missed this one lol, damn he's not still around, thinking and speaking and doing really cool science and especially approaching that science in a very function/cool manner from a research perspective Carry that flag and keep scoring us points! : )
When I was doing my library degree and then working in universities and medical libraries you explained the peer review and set up and also citation index has it does/doesnot work ~ maybe do a video on peer review and submitting research papers and other articles and where it has gone wrong - eg copyright theft, IP theft, inter-team/universities/groups reveries etc etc
Some people game the system so hard it's ridiculous. There's this university professor I read about, he had over 200 publications one year. Obviously no one could possibly publish this many articles. The way he achieved this was that his name was simply added to list of authors, even though he didn't contribute anything to vast majority of those articles. And then there are citation cartels where scientists game the system by citing each others' work. If they want to stop this sort of cheating, they should encourage quality publications instead of this Publish or Perish nightmare we have now and stop using simple numbers to judge how well scientists perform.
As a Scientist, why is Thunderf00t comparing apples to oranges? Comparing Science (a constant) to those other guys (and women) who's subject is a fad; definition: an intense and widely shared enthusiasm for something, especially one that is short-lived; a craze. Also, past performance is not necessarily a guide to future results.
I think probably the most maddening thing about this discreditor is the unsubstantiated claims and just pure conjecture. It honestly just amounts to a big waste of time for everyone involved to deal with. Fortunately he has no following and no substance so nobody needs to take him seriously.
Wow, now even VoiceOfThunder turned against Thunderf00t.... How quickly friends become foes...
🤣
😂😂
Quite the anime betrayal
Yea I've been following Thunderfoot for about a year and this was the first tome I've heard his real name!
@@PurpleRhymesWithOrange same here and i followed him for about 5 years ;p, but it comes down to what he has to say than what his name actually is :)
I might not agree with some of thunderf00t's opinions but i do respect his no BS approach
I agree with pretty much everything except a bit of Elon Musk.
Same, except I agree with almost all of his opinions :)
I dont think i have found anything i dont agree with him on. Especially Musk, hes over rated. Done well for himself but over rated.

You had so many downfalls, you should have had an actual role in the movie "Downfall"
I think Thunderf00t is downfalling so hard that he's missing the ground constantly. So he made it to orbit. :D
Thunderfoot is smelly and weird. Not like you, voiceofthunder, you're cool.
Haha nice one
I've been watching since 2007 off and on. It seems like this downfall might correlate with the return of Jesus.
"Hey it will happen any time now!"
"I've only been waiting for 2000 years!"
And then you remember the Bible said he'd be back "soon". Yeah I think he lied about that.
Thunderf00t, you will be remembered...
for all your enemies, every single day of the rest of their lives.
Thunderf00t can't possibly beat the man who knows "all the keyboard shortcuts"
It's called a passion project for a reason, thanks for all the hard work you put in man.

with so many downfalls , one question remains:
How is china ?
Last time I checked;
_Illegal Organ Harvesting_
_Crazy censorship_
_Chinese people_
Eh, everything seems in check.

"downfall" is kind of a left-handed insult. It implicitly acknowledges you've reached a certain height.
As a Scientist, why is Thunderf00t comparing apples to oranges? Comparing Science (a constant) to those other guys (and women) who's subject is a fad; definition: an intense and widely shared enthusiasm for something, especially one that is short-lived; a craze. Also, past performance is not necessarily a guide to future results.
